Pong, Melissa, Margaret,

What a fabulous event you hosted for old Viper Bob. I'm so sorry I couldn't make it, but it looks like Yugi was there to represent the southland. What fun you folks had. I tinik this should be a semi-annual event! I'll be up for the next one.

Steve, Tony,

Not just Yuji, Eric was there as well. They drove a good 1,000 miles for a lousy BBQ.

Shades of Terry Adams.

Alvin,

Thanks for all the lovely pictures. I was having so much fun, I had no time for pics.

Hi,

Finally have time to load pictures. Enjoy.

We have 4 in the garages, and 11 in the driveway. I looked closely this morning, and not a drop of oil anywhere. Truely amazing.

Looks like a really special time. Might be worth the drive from Texas next time!

Even Mother Nature loves Bob. It drizzled/showered on Friday, and was cloudy and calm on Saturady. Now Sunday comes and it's pouring buckets.

I hope Joe is not out in his GT3 right now.

Nope. This morning's ride up and over Mt. Hamilton was in the RX-7. No rain, but a little wet ground, heavy cloud cover, though. And don't have race slicks on the RX-7!

Great event indeed - glad I made it!

Pong, thank you very much for hosting and opening your home to fellow-Rennlisters - very special indeed.

Bob, 'nuff said, you need to move back, or at least after your son graduates from school.

Great meeting new folks and seeing old friends - doing this and surrounded by so many awesome cars was phenomenal!

Till our next event or next BAR drive!

Eric,

Glad to see your post. That means you're home safe and sound. Hope you did not hit much rain going back. It was pouring buckets here at noon.

EVERYONE wants Gerorge's seats. If some one will buy a car just for the seats, his would be it. A lot of people have Recaro Speedline seats, but with genuine Porsche supple leather, embossed Porsche crests, and fully matching with the interior, his is the only one.

I love my Recaro A-8s, but every time I see Geroge's Speedlines, I start drooling again.

Second page, post #18.

Truely awesome seats, especially when you get to feel them. Leather is like butter.

We really missed you guys at the event. I was talking to family, I'm sure you and Alice will enjoy the party.

Thanks Pong... Those are very nice... I need the exact set in Black leather. I'll have to PM George to get the details.

BTW, Eventhough I couldn't be there... We (Alice and I) were thinking about you guys yesterday and showed her the pics this morning... She said... "What a beautiful house". AhHHH.. ha!!
